    It was the Q1 Ultra Premium that shipped with Vista. Those models had a Core Solo vs whatever Intel chip was in the regular Q1 Ultra. The Premium was also thicker and came with a bigger battery, though the thinner battery from the non-Premium fit. There was also a docking station available for the Q1 Ultra series with a spacer that could be put in to make the non-Premium model fit properly.

    A previous employer provided me with one of these units to use as part of a utility inspection program. It came preloaded with Vista and ran beautifully.

The main theme looked really gorgeous, but would be heavier on resources, while the Classic theme would look a lot more plain but would perform better. Sometimes much better depending on how low-spec the machine was. Then, starting with Windows 8, Microsoft, in a brilliant genius move, got rid of that system entirely and forced users to use the main heavier theme only.

    So Michael, I can easily help you with what is going on on the Q1. What you need to do is you need to go in to control panel and uninstall and disable. Net meeting, you also need to uninstall and disable outlook. Let me explain why. Net meeting and outlook both cause the operating system to lag like a son of a gun. Because they are actually both on and running in the background. 24/7 in Windows Vista. Which consumes Ram and processor usage. If you disable those and turn off the windows widgets on the side of the screen and turn off arrow, you will actually get way better performance out of that little hand held

    Hey Michael, excellent work as always for your channel! I have a suggestion:
    I'm starting a virtualization/archival project of the AWE Learning computers (Early Literacy Station), and I was wondering if you would be interested in doing a video on AWE? I'm only archiving versions that were based off of old releases like Windows XP or Windows Embedded 7 and I've started a Discord dedicated to the efforts. I know someone on Reddit was supposed to contribute but I don't know if it's going to happen or not. If anyone is interested and have a AWE unit to make a hard disk image out of, let me know! It would be nice to see more tech UA-camrs review this interesting piece of software that is known to remove the Windows logo on startup.

    I have tested many times these types of devices. The error in the Windows assessment in these types of devices happens due to the fact that the display size of the panel is smaller than the largest video test file. In theory that should just skip the test but due to INCREDIBLY STUPID Intel driver that just crashes the video decoder when the image is larger than the rendering area. You can dig that from the logs once you dig deep enough.
    Also the touch screen driver - the best version is usually the one it was bundled with. Newer version might have bugs. Also the same driver from the other UMPC devices - either newer or older might not be suitable for the specific UMPC device.

It was ahead of its time and a lot of the hate comes from hardware being behind software and only the unobtanium systems of the time having enough 'smash' to run vista properly. anyone thats tried vista on a phenom II or FX8350 with a good gpu can tell you how well it runs on beefy hardware.
